DMSO and Safety Cautions

We have been using DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) to treat various human conditions (hemorrhoids, rectal stricture, intestinal stricture) both topically and orally for several years now. You can search either my blog here or my Shoppe for the treatment protocols for each of these conditions.

So I want to share with you some basic information about what DMSO is and how it works and then the safety considerations for using this powerful, yet hugely beneficial natural substance.

What Is DMSO?

DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) – is a natural substance that comes from tree bark and was first discovered by Russian scientist, Dr. Alexander Saytzeff in 1866. Due to its amazing ability to bind with other substances, it was first utilized as a solvent. Then in 1959 it was demonstrated that DMSO could protect red blood cells and other tissues against freezing conditions, so experimentation began with using it to freeze and store organs for transplants.

Then Dr. Stanley Jacob, at the University of Oregon Medical School, discovered that DMSO relieved burn pains and prevented scar tissue formation. He published his results in 1963 – from then on DMSO usage and experimentation spread like wildfire. It follows logically, that a substance that can prevent scar tissue formation, should also be able to soften or dissolve existing scar tissue and in this capacity DMSO also does not disappoint.

Since then, DMSO has been widely used with professional athletes (from football players to Olympic gymnasts) where it has proven effective with injuries to soft tissue or joint defusions; sprains, strains, dislocations, tendonitis, bursitis, gout, soft tissue tears, myositis (muscle inflammation), broken bones, tennis elbow. Pain is relieved, swelling subsides, and function is recovered more quickly.

Today, we have plenty of evidence (from medical doctors and/or PhD scientists) showing that DMSO can also (1):

Make the immune system more effective by allowing macrophages to move around and through the tissues faster. It can also diminish allergic reactions.

Increase the permeability of cell membranes, allowing toxins to be flushed from the cell.

Substitute for water in the living cell, then bind to free radicals and form a substance (dimethyl sulfone plus water with the hydroxyl ion) which can then be excreted out of the body via urine.

Prevent the formation of scar tissue or adhesions, or dissolve them once present.

Kill or slow the growth of bacteria, viruses and fungi.

Greatly reduce or eliminate inflammation, swelling, and pain.

Quickly heal skin ulcerations, infected wounds, second and third degree burns and other skin lesions. In a study of 1,371 patients with these varying afflictions who were treated with DMSO, 95.04% were discharged as completely cured. Some of these patients had diabetic leg ulcers, which had been present for over 15 years – they were completely healed after daily topical DMSO spray applications for 20 days. (2)

How is it that one substance can effect or facilitate such a wide range of healing mechanisms? As Dr. Stanley Jacob says:

“We’ve barely scratched the surface, for this is a new principle in medicine. We’ve had only three new principles in our century – the antibiotic principle, the cortisone principle, and now the DMSO principle – and the DMSO principle is the only new one of our generation.

DMSO is literally water’s alter ego. It moves through membranes and substitutes for water so that it pulls substances through cells that ordinarily would not move through them. This is its basic mechanism of action. The DMSO-water bond is 1.3 times stronger than the water-water bond.” (3)

I myself used my HemorrHeal formula (which contains DMSO) to heal internal hemorrhoids I’d had since the birth of my daughter six years prior – they healed in 6 days. Unfortunately, the FDA (as with many powerful natural substances) has banned DMSO for everything but interstitial cystitis (patent held by pharmaceutical company) – so you cannot sell DMSO as part of a formula or remedy and when you sell it straight, it has to say: For Use As A Solvent Only on the bottle.

So the way around this is to provide people with the formula, instructions, ingredients and let you make up your own remedy! And this is what I have been doing here on my blog and in eBooks.

“DMSO is one of the most researched but still least understood pharmaceutical Products of our time. Worldwide there have been approximately 11,000 scientific Articles about medical Applications and more than 40,000 Articles about the chemical Properties published. In 125 Countries like the USA, Canada, Great Britain, Germany, Japan and others, indications for Application are being described by Physicians against, for example, Pains, Inflammations, Scleroderma and Arthritis as well as further diseases”

DMSO Safety Rules

DMSO will transport instantly into the cells anything it comes in contact with.

So only store in glass, wash hands with natural soap before handling, only use unvarnished wood, stainless steel or glass to apply – avoid plastics or anything that contains synthetic chemicals that could be transported into your body.

Solution dropped from a glass dropper and then spread around using clean fingers works well.

Or a natural fiber paintbrush, dipped into a glass bottle of DMSO and painted on. Wash the paintbrush each time after use with natural dish soap and hot water, air dry.

Some people advocate the use of rubber or latex gloves when applying DMSO. This can work, but you need to do a test first to see if the glove is resistant to DMSO. So a common laboratory trick is to fill the finger of the glove with DMSO, and hang it upside down overnight, so the DMSO stays in the finger cavity. In the morning, if the DMSO has NOT eaten through the glove, then that glove material is safe to use with DMSO.

Only use a high quality, pure grade of DMSO that comes in a glass bottle. We use DMSO Inc. brand.

Irritation and Side Effects of DMSO

99% DMSO is often irritating to human skin – we use a maximum of 70% DMSO for most topical applications, diluted with either distilled water or George’s Aloe Vera Juice. For applications above the waist (in humans), 40 – 50% DMSO is usually the maximum. For mucous membranes, we start at 20% DMSO and then increase to a maximum of 40% if needed.

If irritation occurs, it can be soothed with aloe vera, or cold-pressed castor oil, or comfrey salve. All of these substances are safe (and usually beneficial) to be applied on top of the DMSO, once the DMSO layer has dried. It can be VERY itchy as it’s drying though, so be prepared and know that it’s normal.

Because DMSO is a sulfer-containing compound, a garlic body odor is a natural consequence of usage, but disappears rapidly after usage is stopped. Some people find this smell very strong and are bothered by it, others cannot smell it at all. Usually the person using DMSO smells nothing. If you are allergic to sulfa drugs may still be able use DMSO, see this article for clarification and then consult your physician.

Reference: (1,2,3) “DMSO Nature’s Healer: How to Use DMSO to Relieve Pain, Increase Circulation, Repair Tissue Damage, and Fight Degenerative Diseases” by Dr. Morton Walker. This book contains specific instructions on exactly how to use DMSO for a wide range of disorders along with many clinical trials.

i went to buy the SSKI and DMSO from Dr wright website. when i was about to use it, it dawn on me that I may not be able to use it since i have a seton to drain the fistula. is that right? I hv been using sski but results is only so-so.

Even though the seton will continuously drain the fistula, it’s possible that you’ll see better results by combining the DMSO with the SSKI. If you decide to try it, we’d love to hear how it works out for you.

Kind regards,

NOTE: If the seton is made of rubber and not silk then it might not be a good idea to use the DMSO.

I am going through a Diverticulitis flare up right now as I write this. Actually, I’m on the downside as this has been going on since July 28th.

I have Dr. Jacobs 50% solution, and have had it for about 2 years, but never used it much. I was concerned to start using it now because it’s in a plastic bottle. I emailed them about this and they assured me it was ok.

I found DMSO 99% in a brown glass bottle at DMSO.biz and ordered it.

I put some on my lower abdomen area on the left side over my very painful colon, and this seemed to make my colon go balistic. Is this normal?

I haven’t used it topically on this area since my third day of this flare up. This is actually only my second flar up ever, since being diagnosed about 6-7 years ago.

My first flare up was treated with antibiotics and that wiped me out, for various reasons we all know.

This time I didn’t go to the DR. instead treated myself with Olive Leaf, Oregano Oil, Turmeric and Organic Virgin Coconut Oil.

It’s been a rough 2 weeks, as today was my first day to eat anything soild. Had scrambled eggs…the good free range kind.

Anyway, just curious about the DMSO treatments for Diverticulitis.

I’m soo glad I found your site this week and feel much better about this now.

DMSO isn’t actually a part of Jini’s protocol for Diverticulitis; she has used it for internal and external hemorrhoids, intestinal strictures and rectal strictures, parasites and fungus. We haven’t had anyone report a similar symptom like you mentioned using the Nature’s Gift brand of DMSO so I’m afraid we cannot comment on that. If you would like to learn more about Jini’s approach to fighting diverticulitis, check out the link below:

If you decide to try the formula out, we would love to hear how it goes for you!

My seton is made of rubber but I have another abscess (about 10cm) away from the Seton and I am thinking of using oreganol and DMSO there, do you think this is ok? I read it somewhere that says stay away from clothing if you use DMSO. I will normally use a cotton pad and gauze to cover the area after I apply the oil, and will wear a disposable underwear and a normal shorts, will there be any problem with DMSO? I have tried the other methods including the laser pen but the fistula are not healing. It will improve and the abscess will be reduced and then it will come back again. I had the fistula for 2 years now. Recently I also started taking ghee and milk which also help with reducing abscess but still can’t heal completely.

Regarding the clothing, you should be fine as long as it is not synthetic (100% cotton, for example). Using the DMSO away from the seton should also be OK since the concern is keeping the substance away from the rubber. Let us know how it turns out!

I know this is really old but did you ever try Manuka Honey (you can get at Costco) from New Zealand has has super anti-viral properties, use it topically and also eat it (of corse split the jar before you start so that each stays pretty clean). I read about a lady who could not get her MRSA healed by the doctors so she tried Manuka Honey and she got rid of it 100%.

Hello dear
I order DMSO Inc 99.9 pure dmso
The larger size , and it came
In plastic bottle numbers 2 (high density polyethylene)
Can i still use it topically for intestinal strictures ?
And anal strictures ( from the outside )

I wish I could give you a better answer but you’ll have to consult your doctor regarding those specific conditions as we aren’t qualified to comment, unfortunately. Howeverm, we’d love to hear about your results if you decide to use the DMSO.

I have rapidly progressive neuromuscular condition that I can’t perceive my limbs movement and keep getting worse daily that in 4 months of progression I am in power wheelchair and losing control over my body. Unfortunately I have been in many hospitals and no diagnosis . I want to see if DMSO would help my condition and can I apply it in all over my muscles and how can be applied
Thanks

We aren’t qualified to say whether or not DMSO will be effective in your case but, if you decide to try it, Jini recommends following the DMSO Safety Rules mentioned in the blog post above and we would love to hear about your experience with it.

Unfortunately we aren’t able to comment on DMSO relative to any kind of allergy to prescription medication as we’re not qualified to do so. If you have concerns you should definitely speak with your physician before proceeding.

I understand that DMSO will only transport SMALLER weight / size molecular substances through the skin barrier. I have been told that the maximum molecule size is 1000 :-/mol. Is that size restriction true? If so, what is the actual maximum size restriction?

Hi Larry, I researched exactly this question when devising my formulas to ensure that the substances I wanted to use would be transported. Of course now I no longer have that info! But this article is a good place to start and you can probably find whatever else you need here:

I tried using Jini’s protocol for a pretty bad hemorrhoid using DMSO, Aloe Vera and Iodide. I may have been too late in using it as it developed in to a pretty long sentinel one that had to be recently removed under surgery as the blood flow started dying, causing a lot of pain. Under the surgery, not only was this removed leaving an open wound to reduce scarring, but 3 more internal ones were corterised to avoid future issues. It has now been a week and I am so sore. Do you think I can continue to use the drops in the general anal area to help heal the tissue faster? I feel so miserable. Thank you so much for your help

It’s always best to consult your doctor before proceeding with something soon after you’ve had surgery just to be sure that it’s OK. Another possible option would be to try the FissureHeal suppositories as they are more geared toward healing tears/fissures over hemorrhoids. For more information, click this link:

Jini, Justin,
I know we are not supposed to use wound healers internally while having a fistula, but are the ingredients you mentioned above ok (aloe vera/iodide/dmso) in my case… also, is using coconut oil ok? am having pain after bowel movements…

I’m afraid that we aren’t qualified to give any advice about your specific condition as we are not medical professionals (Jini included) so you should definitely consult with your physician if you have concerns about one or more ingredients in the protocol.

Hi Amisha, as Justin stated, we are not legally able to give personal health advice. All we can provide are the protocols that worked for me and my readers – or the ones that worked for me and that my readers are now testing. So if you need one-on-one advice, it’s best if you find a good naturopath or integrative physician. Take in a print-out of my blog post or book you are using and get them to give you feedback, based on your current situation. All the best! Jini

I have bought every book there is on DMSO, none of them have all the info I want. 1. how do I dilute 100% to be 70% @. Do you know of Doctors or clinics that do DMSO injections? 3. how often can I apply to skin a day.
I have many problems, but main one is severe arthritis; right hip (esp. the groin area), both knees, spine incl. low back. I fear becoming incapacitated
and only have my brother who I would not let help with any personal hygine. Does anyone use DMSO along with MSM (or MMS)- think they are the same thing. This is the only website I have found that has any useful info.
Thank You & God Bless

You can dilute DMSO with water but Jini also dilutes it with George’s Aloe Vera Juice which makes it soothing for the skin. Jini found that a 50% DMSO concentration works well for her young kids (children have more sensitive skin). She has very sensitive skin so, although she can tolerate 70%, she finds it annoyingly itchy as it dries. Rubbing on pure aloe vera, or cold-pressed castor oil after the DMSO is dry helps to calm any irritation. Jini’s recommendation for arthritis is a 70% solution three times per day but it can vary depending on how you tolerate it. For more details about using DMSO with arthritis, check out Jini’s symptom page for that at the link below:

HI, I am wondering if I can use the intestinal stricture protocol on my brother who has stomach cancer. There are some strictures on his small intestine caused from the surgery and the adhesions and scar tissue are compressing his small intestine. Is it safe to try this protocol on abdominal scar tissue when someone has cancer?

We aren’t aware of any issues with using this protocol if a person has cancer but he’ll definitely want to check with his physician to be sure that none of the components will interact with any medication he is on or be detrimental based on any other aspects of his particular health situation. If he decides to try the protocol we’d love to hear how it works out for him and we’re always happy to answer any questions that you or he might have.

I am highly interested in using DMSO to dissolve scar tissue from a recent TKR. As you most likely know not only do I have the initial scar to gain access to my knee joint but scar tissue from the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that were cut also. The knee is very tight from all this dispite 9 weeks of P.T. My concern is since DMSO is a solvent what effect might it have on the implant that has plastic in it. I am desperate to found something that will help with the adhesions and not harm my implant.

Thank you for your interest and question. Unfortunately we would not recommend using the DMSO with the plastic in your implant. We do recommend asking your doctor more concerning it though. Sorry we could not be of more help with that. Please let us know if you have anymore questions.

Nasal Polyps Question…. Any protocols that you know of that have been tested? We are doing 4 drops 50% DMSO solution with tea tree oil external once a day, MediHoney nasal wash mid day, 20% DMSO TTO/lavender internal end of the day. The growth we are dealing with is huge, but breathing and smell has already improved after 6 days. Any other info for nasal polyps and DMSO is appreciated!

Jini doesn’t have a protocol for nasal polyps but thanks so much for stopping by and taking the time to share info about what you have been using. The only protocols remotely close to that would be the ones that she uses for nosebleeds and sinus infections at the links below:

Hi Justin,
Today I received my 99.9% DMSO. I applied the DMSO to my husband’s knees for chronic pain. It worked in about 20 minutes on his right knee. His left knee needed a second application, it has scar tissue from surgery in the past. I had gently applied it with my bare hands. My left hand had no reaction, but my right hand was extremely dry from wrist to finger tips, as if I had my hand in dishwater for hours. Very wrinkled and it has been a few hours, the wrinkles on my palm and finger tips are very pronounced. Do you know what may have caused such a reaction? Has anyone had this experience applying DMSO with bare hands? Thank you for your response ahead of time.

Is DMSO effective in curing cutaneous amyloidosis? Also, any other remedy besides Aloe Vera juice/gel that helps reducing burning sensation/itching/roughness/damage to skin after using high concentrate DMSO for a few weeks.

Thank you for your inquiry. We are not medical professionals and unable to comment if DMSO can cure cutaneous amyloidosis. We would not recommendations putting straight DMSO on your skin, and it mix it with the aloe vera juice or distilled water. You can also put aloe vera, or cold-pressed castor oil, or comfrey salve after to help the irritation to the skin. Please let us know if you have any other questions.

I have interstitial cystitis (IC) which i got from a sudden mold issue in my finished basement in july 2012. I immediately started with bladder pain, frequency, urgency and saw my 1st of 2 urologist/urogynocologists who DID not diagnose me correctly. 1st one did toons and then a urethroplasty bc he said i had the pain bc i wasnt emptying all he way…even though it showed i did on the many ultrasounds and then he started drugging me with over active bladder meds. Then i switched to a 2nd dr and she jerked me around for a yr and finally said she had to do a bladder lift bc i had a minor prolapse and she assured me that would get rid of the bladder pain which was UNBEARABLE AND CONSTANT and nothing any of them did had helped so I agreed and she said she WAS NOT going to use a mesh sling bc i have fibromyalgia and thats an autoimmune disease………..but i found the op note recently and she DID put it in and never told me. She also DID NOT do a pelvic exam before or during the surgery which was on March 5th 2014 and then5mths later in august 014 i was diagnosed with an ovarian cyst whcih turned out to be ovarian cancer and tat surgery was Oct 9 2014 so she was also negligent in not doing an exam bc it would have been found 5ths sooner AND she did not diagnose me correctly either and she is still insisting i dont have IC and that i had stress incontinence….except i had never nor do i now have ANT of the symptoms of stress incont and i do have terrible pain in my bladder when ever i eat certain foods…and i “healed” my cystitis by buying 1 $18 book on amazon and following it to a T and taking the suppliments as suggested. But now i have a constant burning high up in my vagina that i never had before and its been there for over 1 1/2 yrs and i think its the mesh causing it. My question is….can the DMSO heal IC and can you take it with the mesh which is a nylon? What can i expect from it as far as healing goes?

Sorry for all you have gone through. We are not medical professionals and unable to advise you concerning the DMSO for the Interstitial Cystitis. We would recommend seeing a naturopath or functional medicine doctor to better assist you. We mostly advise on treating digestive disorders holistically.
We wish you all the best in your healing.

Thank you for the inquiry. Sorry for all you have gone through, glad to hear you are doing better now though. We don’t have experience using the DMSO for foot pain, so we could not say for certain. However, if you do decide to try it we would love to hear how it works out for you.

DMSO, like Turmeric, CDB oil do the same thing. Remove inflammation. No inflammation, no illness, disease and pain. These are the Miracle Meds. God’s Medicine . He has not had any illness , not even a cold in 40 years. Why? He takes a T-spoon of DMSO daily. So do I. I have used DMSO since 1979 for back, shoulder, wrist pain, burns, headache, stomach cancer, 4Xs, etc. You name it. Just sponge it on or drink it. It is a fine gift for a friend in need. $6 at the local feed store. I have gave 50-60 bottles over the years. Always keep 1-2 bottles in my car.

I recently saw a note from Dr Jacobs, = “DMSO=The Miracle Drug of the NW, a book by him 50 years ago. He is now 85 . He is well. As Jesus said: “All gifts from God are good.” Enjoy. Be healthy. A little prayer often works miracles. Wonders “In Jesus’ name.” jim

DMSO is one of the products we recommend in a protocol to treat pinworms. You can see that information and the other products we recommend to treat it here: http://www.listentoyourgut.com/symptoms/54/an-intestinal-parasite.html
Please let us know if you have any further questions. If you decide to try it out we would love to hear how it works out for you.

Hi
As i understand DMSO with SSKIi can cure the intestinal strictures.
What about multiple male urethra strictures can be useful?
How you recomend to use, which one of your protocols can help?
As already you know in this cases we don t have to many options so i want to try it.
Pls advice which proticol can fit better

Unfortunately, we do not have experience or knowledge of treating this type of stricture as we are not medical professionals. We would recommend consulting your doctor on safety of it. If you do decide to try it we would love to hear how it works out for you.

Unfortunately, we do not have experience with using DMSO in this way, and are not medical professionals so are unable to advise you on this. We would contacting your doctor on using it in this way if you are concerned. If you do try to use it for this we would love to hear how it works out for you.

hello, i have been using DMSO for a few days for pain throughout my body it has been amazing! Definitely, a true God send and a Blessing.

Can any one guide me if DMSO can be used for chronic severe allergies from environmental Pesticide s and Herbicides?
I live in the land of chemical sprays Auckland and need to see Dr. Matt from the Poison Centre most days due to horrendous side affects.

I have had to give up my job recently as a nurse due to severe health issues relenting from the above, sadly I have used all my savings to get by and to pay for on going treatments.
I would be so grateful and appreciative of any advice or kind suggestions.
Thank you
Much Love Ellie.

Hi Ellie, Have you tried Castor Oil Packs? They are terrific for detoxifying internal issues. If you can do it for 2 hours with a heating pad that turns off after an hour, that way you can watch a good movie and after an hour, get up and stretch, then add a little more castor oil and do another hour).http://www.listentoyourgut.com/symptoms/31/abdominal-pain-and-cramping.html

Drinking blended fresh fruits and veggies. Zucchini is great to add to either kind because it is fantastic for the lymph (which needs a lot of help when on a serious detox program) and it has almost NO taste. Green Magma barley juice powder is also very cleansing and rejuvenating.

If you can do infrared saunas, they will help detoxify from chemicals. Dr. Sherry Rogers’ book “Detoxify or Die” has these and other protocols. Take care and know others are sending you good thoughts.

I had a mixture of DMSO and Baking soda and soaked my fingers in it for about 15 minutes. 24 hours later my fingers are still all shriveled up like I soaked in a tub for hours. I hope it’s not permanent. How long before they are back to normal?

Hi! Have cataracts, wanna do dmso/vit C eyedrops, see if I can reverse them and avoid surgical replacement w plastic lens.
No compounding pharma (I can locate) will risk making these drops anymore, & the premade drops are expensive/dubiously effective.
Have you experience w safe/effective dmso eyedrops of any kind?
Thanks! Glad you are doing this great & risky work,
Win

A simple eye-drop formulation, made popular by Dr. Robert Rowen, MD, has also shown promise in the prevention and treatment of cataracts. Known as “Dr. Rowen’s Eye Drops”, the formula contains DMSO, Glutathione, and Vitamin C. All three ingredients have powerful antioxidant properties that battle free radicals and are important nutrients in overall eye health.

Glutathione: Eyes deficient in glutathione are more susceptible to cataracts and other eye diseases and contain approximately one-fifth the amount of glutathione compared to normal lenses.

DMSO: Is a natural solvent that can carry other drugs with it across membranes, enhancing the delivery of companion ingredients.

Vitamin C: The sclera of the eye is dependent on vitamin C for good health, and research has shown that cataracts can begin when vitamin C becomes deficient.

This formulation is available through College Pharmacy with a prescription. For more information about Dr. Rowen’s Eye Drops, or to speak to a pharmacist about vitamin supplements for eye health, contact College Pharmacy directly.

Hi listen to your gut
I have the eye problem Glaucoma plus Eyelash infection Blepharitis I can not take the eye drops that the doctor prescribed to treat the Glaucoma.
Is it correct that I can mix 99.8 % DMSO with Colloidal silver solution.
The DMSO treating the Glaucoma and the Colloidal silver treating the eyelash Blepharitis problem .
If so what % DMSO and what % Colloidal silver should I use ?.

Thanks for contacting us. For Glaucoma of the eyes – you can purchase glutathione/DMSO/vitamin C eye drops from specialist compounding pharmacies. See my comment above dated October 25, 2017 for details about Dr. Rowen’s Eye Drops. Its for cataracts but might work for this condition too.

Hi Cris B
thank yo0u for your reply.
Please can you tell me, or where do I look up how to mix Glutathione, DMSO, Vitamin C as I prefer to mix my own solution up.
its a personal thing, and they are my eyes.
I was told just using 25% DMSO mixed with a 10 ppm colloidal silver solution helped Cateraracts and Glaucoma eye problems plus could one then use a vitamin c solution as eye drops.

Hi – I use Thera tears ( sreailid ) foaming cleanser for your eyelids and eyelashes. I have dry eyes and am prone to getting eye infections. Haven’t had an infection since I started to use this wonderful eye cleanser .

I have had five abdominal surgeries and working with a myofascial worker to break up scars tissues/adhesions that are pulling from my sacrum to my adbomen/pelvis. I am literally stuck front to back. Is it ok to put the DMSO directly on my abdomen and pelvic area to try and unstick the tissues. I have been using castor oil but its not breaking up anything. I’m at my wit’s end as the pain prevents me from walking or doing much of anything due to the tugging. I have the 70% DMSO/30% distilled water from Nature’s Gift…..just have been afraid to try it because I don’t want to burn my skin. Thank you for your help.

Thank you for reaching out! Yes, just make sure to dilute it with Aloe Vera Juice and apply to your Abdomen using finger tips or a natural hair paint brush (do not use any synthetic with DMSO. Allow it to dry and you can apply the Castrol oil. Please check DMSO and Safety Cautions for more information about DMSO safety rules.

For what it’s worth, I have been using DMSO 70% Distilled water 30% to break up internal encapsulation scars from 20 yr. breast surgery. I brush it on with a clean fine natural hair paint brush (like a make-up brush) and let it air dry on my skin. Sometimes I apply castor oil over that and cover with a clean white cotton wash cloth. It has been a little over 2 months and softening is evident. Just my experience so far. DMSO is pretty safe.

I just got the 99.9 % DMSO and rubbed it on my back.. I didnt mix with anything.. My frist time and rubbed on the sole of my feet..They both feel better but is that to strong? I have a garlic kinda taste in my mouth.

Thanks for reaching out! 99% DMSO is often irritating to human skin – we use a maximum of 70% DMSO for most topical applications, diluted with either distilled water or George’s Aloe Vera Juice. For applications above the waist, 40 – 50% DMSO is usually the maximum. If irritation occurs, it can be soothed with aloe vera, or cold-pressed castor oil, or comfrey salve. All of these substances are safe (and usually beneficial) to be applied on top of the DMSO, once the DMSO layer has dried. Please check DMSO and Safety Cautions for more information about that.

Thanks for contacting us here. We’re not aware of any injectable DMSO, unfortunately. DMSO will transport instantly into the cells anything it comes in contact with so it should only be stored in a glass and avoid any plastics or anything that contains synthetic chemicals that could be transported into your body.

i like to kow if it is safe to use DMSO on swellen thyroid as well as on The side of thyroid that has nodules.
what potency?
Where do I get it from.
where do I get DMSO with glutethione?
Thanks so much .

Thank you for reaching out! We don’t have any data or feedback about using DMSO in the manner you mentioned but we have been using DMSO to treat various conditions like hemorrhoids, rectal stricture, intestinal stricture, etc. both topically and orally. We’d love to hear how it works out for you if you’re considering it and decide to proceed.

Hi,
I (69 Y) have cardio vascular problems, hawed Bypass operation 15 years ago, so diabetes type 2 is part of.. But I also have problem with the gout attacking joints on my feet’s and hand’s wrist, related to hard pain. Also problem with tintinatis, permanently whistling in right ear. Can I use DMSO and how to apply, what will be benefits.

There is my partner (65 Y) and she have MS for several years problem to synchronise and coordinate foots, she had also arthritis, joints on hands fingers swollen. How she can use DMSO and what will be expecting benefits.

Hello Ivan, Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, Tinitus is not something we have experience treating. It may be something that can be cleared up through the basic treatments for other things like the DMSO or Wild oregano oil, but we can not say for certain.

Hello there – do you have any info on vaping dmso? I have copd and have read that u can’t nebulize the dmso because of the materials of the nebulizer part is made of plastic so it would be dangerous to us in a nebulizer. Thanks

We don’t have any data or feedback about using the protocol in the manner you mentioned, but yes, use only unvarnished wood, stainless steel or glass to store or apply. Avoid plastics or anything that contains synthetic chemicals that could be transported into your body.

In the eBook for Strictureheal, the topical solution calls for 2 tbsp. DMSO, 2 tbsp. Aloe Vera Juice and 2 tsp. SSKI. After you have done this protocol a few times, if you think your skin will tolerate higher DMSO content, then try a solution of 70% DMSO to 30% aloe vera (3 tbsp. DMSO and 1 tbsp. Aloe vera Juice) keeping the potassium iodide the same.

Can you give any info on how to apply dmso and lugol’s iodine to a sebaceous cyst on my labia. I have 70% dmso. I know I need to use a glass container to do the mixing but how do I apply and in what proportions?

Hello
I got a perianal abscess back in August which tracked through the perineum and became a horseshoe abscess. I had them incised but very soon after they healed I began a cycle of them retuning … either side and of varying intensity. I have had an MRi and a ‘clear out’ operation .. and I do not have a fistula or Chrones. However .. the infection seems to be hiding in the perineum so antibiotics have never got rid of the infection …and I have had a couple of small abscesses since I healed from the last op. I have been using the WOO topically, take high dose Vit C and am taking TCM potions but feel that I would like to include DMSO in my routine so that the WOO can penetrate deeper.
I would really like some guidance on how I should apply the mixture .. and do you think it would work? I’ve educated myself about DSMO .. but have to admit that I’m still a bit nervous about using it.
Also wanted to say how amazing it is to have found a forum like this – we all search around for an answer in our time of need .. wanting to hear other stories and be told what to do by someone who KNOWS WHAT TO DO. It’s helped me enormously to read other peoples stories and journeys… so thank you.

And if you decide to use the turbo charged formula that includes DMSO, you MUST read Jini’s eBook on Natural Treatments for Anal Stenosis and Stricture for a full description of each of these ingredients, how to mix, how to apply it, safety guidelines, etc. before beginning treatment, you can get the eBook and formula ingredients here..

Question regarding DSMO. Has anyone noticed using DSMO, affects their opiate pain medications? It seems like after I apply it to skin, I begin to experiance withdrawl symtoms of opiates. It always follows after I’ve applied DMSO. Havent found any literature about drug interactions.
